Answer 1

In the given problem, we have to find the value of  `x- 1/x`

Given  `x^2 + 1/x^2 = 102`

We shall use the identity `(a-b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab`

Here putting`x^2 + 1/x^2 = 102`,

`(x-1/x)^2 = x^2 + 1/x^2 - 2 (x- 1/x)`

`(x-1/x)^2 =102 - 2(x xx 1/x)`

`(x- 1/x)^2 = 102 -2`

`(x- 1/x)^2 = 100`

`(x-1/x) xx (x - 1/ x) = 10 xx 10`

                        `(x-1/x) = 10`

Hence the value of `x-1/x`is 10 .
